Kelly dealt with Chewing, Pulling, Recall
From the very first session I have noticed a difference in my puppy. Kelly is so amazing at explaining everything I need to know. I am learning so much from her already and can’t wait to continue our training.

Kelly dealt with Puppy management
Kelly was great. She helped us understand what was happening with Margot and gave us the confidence to address the problem behaviours.

Can’t praise Kelly highly enough. Margeaux has been increasingly problematic with her behaviour. In the first session with Kelly we had her coming in command (would never previously), obeying commands to stop what she was doing and realising she was not top dog in the household. Looking forward to the next session and practising what we have learned in the mean time.

Kelly has been amazing and has changed our world with our little Frenchie puppy Luna. During the first session she was able to give us easy to implement commands and instructions to use with our little girl. By the end of the first session, we could already see a huge difference in her behaviour. Kelly also gave us a few tips on Luna’s diet and just by making a few changes to her food we have seen a massive change in her overall health. We have just completed our second session and we now have a very happy and relaxed puppy. The behaviour changes have been incredible. Gone is the anxious behaviour from before. She is now happy and relaxed to greet others and their dogs.
We can’t thank Kelly enough for giving us the tools to be responsible pet owners and to nurture a relaxed and happy puppy into our family.
Contacting Kelly was the best decision we made!

trainer Kelly had an honest approach from the beginning. Taught myself and chino both skills we didn’t know and we’ve seen such an improvement in Chino. Would recommend Kelly to anyone looking guidance and insight knowledge into your pups mind

We had a major hierarchy problem within our pack .
We lost our Ridgeback alpha male after 12 years and then introduced a new pup to our other 2 Ridgebacks
Our 5 yr old dog and the new pup did not gel and life was a nightmare. Our 14 month old and new pup were fine.
Our 5 year old struggled with the new dynamics and became aggressive toward the new pup.
One lesson with Kelly and our problem was solved ...issues with my handling of the integration were addressed and rules and regulations set in place. Life became harmonious immediately. After the first lesson the 3 dogs were sleeping on beds in the same room under my supervision.
I have had 8 Ridgebacks and have never had a problem and was at my wits end with this new problem .
With Kelly's support and guidance my issues were sorted...Can't stress enough how Kelly's knowledge is worth its weight in gold. I highly recommend Kelly to anyone having any issues with their dogs.
Kelly is straight forward and get the job done ...A Big Thank You.. Cynthia

We have a Cavoodle Kobe who had separate anxiety and barking when no one was home. Kelly was great with understanding our needs and attended to every singe one in great detail.Just after the first Session with Kelly, Kobe stopped barking when we were at work throughout the day, it was amazing to see the results. The continued support in other areas of training and information Kelly has provided us has exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend to anyone who is having issues!

Absolutely thrilled so far with the training provided by Kelly McClelland (Bark Busters) for our 12 month old Frenchie. While we didn’t have major problems we could see dominance patterns emerging and wanted to nip things in the bud quickly before we ended up with an aggression problem. After our time with Kelly we were able to understand how some of our behaviours contributed to Suki’s dominance. We have had immediate gains with recall and barking after only one lesson and look forward to further improvement as we implement daily practice and see Kelly again for further training in a few weeks time. Fabulous investment which benefits the whole family,

Fantastic service, Kelly was excellent with her knowledge and communication. Adapted the training to our needs as a family. Remarkable results from session 1! Our dog has gone from pulling on lead and extreme stress around other dogs while walking to staying calm and needing no diversions or treats as we pass. Also helped very quickly and effectively with her jumping behaviour. Thanks very much!

Kelly dealt with Chewing, Puppy management, Recall, Sibling rivalry, Toileting
Anyone who is considering bringing a puppy into their home needs Kelly in their life! We recently welcomed a beautiful little Cavalier King Charles puppy named Radar. Kelly has helped us from choosing the right breed for our family’s needs, setting up crate training, toilet training, setting up a routine, instilling good doggy manners and has even provided us with information and product recommendations about food, flea and worming, vaccination, grooming and toys to keep our pup happy. This woman is a fountain of knowledge! I would especially recommend Kelly for people with young children as she was great at educating our kids in dog safety as well as how to care, love and play with our new pup. In the two weeks between getting Radar and our first appointment with Kelly, I was feeling overwhelmed but after one session, she helped us to figure out where Radar fits into our family life and routine and now Radar knows his place in our pack too. Radar is already so well-mannered and well-trained, he has slotted into our family so well and is a pleasure to be around. I have no doubt that we couldn’t have done it without Kelly. Thankyou!
Trainer note from Kelly
Radar is just the most delicious bundle of goodness, thank you for inviting me into your home to assist. Covering off all the normal puppy issues like sleeping, mouthing, toilet training, lead work and starting on obedience, we also made child safety a good fun game, so that your gorgeous children were able to play safely and calmly with their new little buddy. I am looking forward to seeing you at our social class for puppies (included in your fee!), very soon (and yes, I'll eb stealing more cuddles LOL). Great job team, well done!
